anoel and I were talking the other night about how we thought it would be fun to re-edit some of our old vids, just to see how we'd make them differently now, which turned into a conversation about possibly doing it as a community. I mentioned it on twitter and got a lot of feedback from other vidders/vidwatchers saying they thought it would be really fun, so we should totally do this.

This is still in the early planning stages, but I'm pretty confident with what the guidelines will be: The remake must use the same song, fandom, and general idea of the original vid. I'm still unsure about allowing remixes/covers of the song or allowing footage that may have aired after the original vid was made. Right now I think I want to leave that up to the vidder, but I would love some input on that, as well as any other ideas you might have.

Finally, timing! As much as I wish I thought of this idea two months ago, I did not, so I'm not sure when the best timeframe would be for everyone. Anyone who is interested in participating, please vote in the poll and/or leave a comment with your thoughts.

OKAY. I made three vids this year. I think I started seven, some of which may go on permanent hiatus, but I will probably go back to others, since 3/4ths of the unfinished ones are already clipped. Oops. Anyway. VIDS.

It took me til Wednesday, but I've finally finished watching all the Festivids! I have 30 recs altogether, including the ones made just for meeeee! :D This year, instead of just listing them, I am putting them into categories that explain why I'm reccing them, and also to help guide people who actually might watch some of these if they're in the mood for something in particular. Here is the masterlist for Festivids 2013, because seriously, there are SO many wonderful vids that I'm not going to talk about here, and there's something for everyone on that list.

Vids made just for meeeeee!I received three absolutely wonderful vids this year! This is the most vids I've ever received in one year, and all for fandoms I've been re-requesting since I first joined Festivids, so I was completely overjoyed to open my presents. :D

Live While We're Young (Space Cases) - This person either knows me or did their research, because Space Cases to a One Direction song, omg. And I thought the use of the Kidz Bop version was actually quite clever, because it fit the mood of the show better than the original, being a super dorky 90s kids sci-fi show. This vid absolutely captured the fun of the show and I can tell the vidder has as much love for it as I do.Raise Your Glass (Space Cases) - I am a firm believer that every fandom needs a Raise Your Glass vid, but Space Cases is totally one of the most deserving of it, because if Space Cases didn't already have such an awesome theme song, this would be the perfect replacement. This vidder has a clear love for these characters and the ridiculous plotlines that mirrors mine, and the clips they decided to use had me clapping with glee, because they were some of my favorite memories of the show.Sheep Go To Heaven (Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip) - This vid felt so thoughtful to me, because it wasn't a "yay, show!" vid, but rather a kind of snarky criticism of the entertainment industry, kind of like the show itself. I appreciated the direction this vid took more and more each time I watched it, and the song was a perfect match for the source. It had a wonderful abundance of my girl, Jordan McDeere, but it was also an expansive look at the show and characters in it's entirety, and I'm just so glad that someone finally made a vid of this show. <3
